Mother and Child

Mother and Child by Mrs. Anderson

This is a painting done by Mrs. Anderson. She reproduced a painting that appeared in Living Buddhism and she plans to send it to the FNCC as a way of showing her devotion to SGI. It was done with oils and it is truly beautiful, both in composition and in the depth and richness of the color.

Mrs. Anderson and Painting by Finijo

Mrs. Anderson is about 4'11" and she's 88 years old. She volunteers, she gardens, she performs Japanese, Line, and Hip-Hop dance (I've seen her do this) and she is a spit fire. In short, she is a hero of mine, and I hope I have her energy and her zest for life when I am her age. She's an inspiration.
